[Thrace]

so how do I fix my problem I warp to a route and the screen goes black

Check if there are any people with the movement type "Hidden" or "Look Down". Also see if there are any level scripts that might be affecting the map.

Just hover over the different values in A-Map and it'll tell you.

Edit: Never mind - I was able to correct the problem myself via a block editor. Thanks anyway! ^^

This may be a rather "nooby" question, but I'll ask it anyway. ^^; When I make new building interior maps via Advance Map and then put them into my hack, for some reason the background/border color appears as a rather nasty magenta rather than the black I want it to be. (A screenshot is included with this post as an attachment). Is there any way I can get the color to show up as black, as it's supposed to? (Advance Map says the background/border color for the maps is black, as does Elite Map). Thanks in advance! :)

You may have corrupted that map, there are a few fixes I know of, but first, what version of A-Map were you using?

It happened to me once.
It may be a script issue.
or something to do with the tiles( new tiles inserted )
or the increase of height and width of the maps may have done this.
Not sure though.
Hope that helps.

Why do when I try to save my changes in the hack tools for PKMN G/S/C the program crashes and say:
ERROR 75:
PATH FILE ACCESS ERROR
:/

Cheers! :3

Can anyone answer me if there's a way to change the color palletes of a map and to add more colors?
Cheers! :D

For the first question, maybe you're roms are set to Read-Only?

For the second you'll have to search for the colour values in a hex editor, and I don't think theres any easy way to add colours.

That error, I think is in VB6 when a designated file path can't be found.
So in other words one of the files that should have come with the program is missing.

can any1 tell me what is wrong with this map? I can warp into the cave, but I cannot, for the life of me, warp out.

These are the two maps I am warping between:https://zmilstone.info/element/Element/Maps.rar

i know this question is old and all , but nobody knew the answer, so I'll tell you. I had this problem for some time too, but I looked through the block editor and on the cave tileset, look to the right a bit of the line of tiles and you see how there is a copy of the ground tile? Put that tile right above the cave exit and you'll be able to warp out fine. They're both the same visual tile, except the one on the right has a behavior byte that warps on the next tiles below. so...

FLOOR TILE
VV(warp to below tile)
-_- << EXIT, now a warp.

hope that helped.

Is there any possible way I can change the colors of one map alone?

Example: I do a flashback event, then go to a map thats black and white colored, then go back to the map I came from, and its in its regular color.

Theres an ASM routine that foofatron found that can do it. Try searching for it at PHO.

In Fire red, when I want to open the Trainer Tower, AM always give me errors of missing pointers.
Can this be fixed?

Thats most likely something to do with the fact that trainer tower uses special OWs. Why do you need it anyway? Surely there are other maps you can edit.

 

[Spherical Ice]

Is it possible to change tile priorities?

E.g.
You see Player above tile
You see tile above Player

Thanks in advance! (And sorry if it doesn't belong here!)

In AMap in the Block Editor, the Background byte does that.
00 for behind the top block.
20 for above.
